The curse of the “Dead Dog Afternoon”

I don’t know about you, but, as I have gotten older,  I find that I really need a “nanna nap” every afternoon.  I am using the “time management” technique to help me to structure my day,  and  I divide my time into 3 hour time slots.  The “dead dog afternoon” syndrome kicks in  between 3 and 6pm. By now, I am somewhat rested but totally unmotivated . I can’t make myself get up and do something useful and find I can still be lying on my bed until 5.30pm.

I must say I am taking steps to try to correct  this  loafing attitude. I listen to the BBC World News programme for an hour and then turn to Pandora for a session of Boogie Piano music, which always brightens me up, but I have things I should be addressing. Writing this blog is one, doing some Ancestry research is another, I need to increase  my computer skills and, hell’s bells, maybe even cook myself a meal!!!
